Concentrated Solar Project equipment

SCHOTT Solar CSP – Your partner for sustainable profitability. The receiver, being the key component of a CSP plant, has a decisive influence on the overall efficiency of the plant and has to withstand drastic temperature changes and mechanical stresses throughout its lifetime. The SCHOTT PTR 70 Receiver responds to this challenges: high ...

Concentrated Solar Power (also called Concentrating Solar Power, Concentrated Solar Thermal and CSP) systems use mirrors to focus solar radiation on a thermal receiver to raise the temperature of a specially formulated heat transfer fluid (HTF) for direct use or to generate steam for hybrid power systems, for industrial pr

The concept of mini solar thermal power plants (MSTPP’s) was first elaborated by SHP Europe in 2003. Basically, it’s a small thermal expansion machine driven by steam supplied from a solar collector field. The system can be combined on a project-by-project basis with a thermal storage system or a back-up boiler, as well as various ...

Of the 2 primary methods used for harnessing the sun's energy, solar-thermal is more readily adapted to large-scale projects using Concentrated Solar Power or CSP.CSP involves concentrating the sun's rays and focusing the energy onto a central collector or receiver, water inside the receiver is then heated under pressure to temperatures up to ...

The vacuum tube is not simply mated ad-hoc to a reflector; rather the concentrator and collector have been specially tuned to ensure maximum usage of available solar energy. The collector has an exceedingly wide angle of acceptance – maintaining peak energy generation even when the light strikes it at a wide angle. The concentration ratio is ...

The Earth's demand for energy increases but the supply of fossil fuels shrinks. The concentrated solar power (CSP) technology replaces the energy derived from fossil fuels with energy generated from the sun, a free and abundant fuel. The CSP technology can be used to satisfy electricity, heating and process steam production, cooling and ...

The solar energy is the easiest and the most sustainable solution for the production of electricity and, in the soon future, is going to be the cheapest one. The increasing worldwide energetic need is causing economically impossible the usage of the fossil fuel. The shortage of actual hydrocarbon fields, moreover concentrated on geographically ...

Jetstream’s Newgen™ Solar Electric Generating System - The availability of electricity is critical to our commercial and domestic well being. Businesses and consumers are realizing more every day the need and the benefits of controlling their own source of electricity.

BrightSource Energy’s proprietary solar thermal energy system is engineered to produce predictable, reliable and cost-competitive clean energy when needed most.BrightSource’s solar thermal energy systems generate power the same way as traditional power plants – by creating high temperature steam to turn a turbine. However, ...

The potential of solar power worldwide, with particular reference to photovoltaic (PV) energy, is huge: according to the EPIA (European Photovoltaic Industry Association) the photovoltaic sector has been growing at an average rate of 35% in the last ten years.

The XCPC pairs a custom evacuated tube solar collector with an external non-imaging reflector in a non-tracking, roof or ground mountable system. This combination enables the XCPC East/West design to cost effectively achieve temperatures in excess of 200°C at more than 50% efficiency – which current market incumbents cannot attain ...

Solar Photovoltaic (PV) module makes use of the abundant energy in the sun converts to electricity, and it has little impact on our environment. Photo voltaic can be used to power a wide range of products, from small consumer electronic items to large commercial solar electric systems.

With nearly 30 years of experience with traditional power boilers, Aalborg CSP has developed a state-of-the-art solution for solar tower receiver systems to generate direct steam - tested and proven by a variety of demo and fully operational commercial CSP plants in the world.

SkyTrakker provides the local electronics that control and direct a trough’s movement by determining the optimal position for the collector based on calculating the sun’s position. The SkyTrakker represents a step-change in features, reliability and life-cycle costs of control units for parabolic trough power plants. SkyTrakker is a ...

Wind energy counts among the most popular renewable energy sources. Especially in the coast area or on free areas, a high energy revenue can be realized by “Wind parcs”. Through the concentration of several plants, the maintenance, grid connection and power input is simplified. Thus, the operator costs also decrease.
